• Support
• Water and nutrient
uptake
• Nutrient transport
• Storage
• Contact between plant
and soil
• Soil born disease resistant

Grafting History
The Chinese were thought to be grafting the
detached shoots and twigs containing buds as
early as 2000 B.C.

Vegetable Grafting
• 1920’s: watermelons
• 1950’s: eggplants and cucumbers
• 1960’s: tomatoes and peppers
• In many Asian Countries tomatoes are grafted onto eggplant for bacteria wilt resistant

![Page 19: Powerpoint Template - U of A University of Arkansas Division of … › counties › miller › Tomato Grafting.pdf · 2014-10-17 · Powerpoint Template for use by the U of A University](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042403/5f153a11f2d4a512a02f65a1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Tongue Approach Grafting
![Page 20: Powerpoint Template - U of A University of Arkansas Division of … › counties › miller › Tomato Grafting.pdf · 2014-10-17 · Powerpoint Template for use by the U of A University](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042403/5f153a11f2d4a512a02f65a1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Stem Specialized Tissues
It very important that the
vascular bundles of the
scion come into contact
with the respective vascular
tissues of the rootstock.

Healing Chamber
• Place grafted plant into healing chamber as
soon as possible
• 2-5 days in total darkness
• Followed by 5-7 days for filtered sunlight
• Maintain temperature at 75-80 degree F
• Strive for 90% relative humidity

Reason for Failures
• Rootstock and scion varieties are genetically
incompatible
• Poor grafting technique
• Improper management of the healing chamber
environment
• Insufficient healing period.
• Mechanical disruption
• Insufficient sanitation
![Page 26: Powerpoint Template - U of A University of Arkansas Division of … › counties › miller › Tomato Grafting.pdf · 2014-10-17 · Powerpoint Template for use by the U of A University](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042403/5f153a11f2d4a512a02f65a1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Management in the Field
• Keep graft union
above ground
• Stake and tie plants
• Remove lower prunes
• Remove ground
suckers

Bradley County Grafting Project
• Local favorite heirloom tomato “Bradley”
• No Fusarium Wilt resistance
• Utilized “Crista” as rootstock
– Commercially available variety
– Resistant to Fusarium wilt 1,2 &3
• Grafted older plants to ensure high graft union
